Oh No! Now i will have 4 eye shadow palettes with close to the same colors. I loved Boxy but I’m starting to acquire piles of neutral lipsticks, eyeshadow i don’t use, and black eyeliner and mascara. I still have Sephora, Boxy and I get Target when I see it as its different. I got rid of Ipsy and LipMonthly. Actually my new favorite is Julep because they give you 4 days to pick your own choices. So i’m actually getting blue and burgundy eyeliner, and red lipstick. I love their lipstick and their nailpolish is always good. I think some of my friends will be getting ‘makeup baskets” for Christmas. This is always fun. I’m keeping all these thru the holidays as i’m hoping for some colors and glitter!

Is there any boxycharm coupons? Also do they have a points system or anything?
Reply
Jackie
I haven’t come across any coupons, but they do have sort of like a points system where you review products and get 50 charms per review and you can spend them in the “charm shop”. Like 1000 charms equals $10 and 400 charms gets you free shipping on the items you purchase
I think I’m makeup-ed out through Boxycharm, as awesome as they are. Does anyone know of any good skincare based boxes that are around the same price? I want to stock up on skincare for a bit. 🙂 Preferably Korean

A good Korean beauty box is Mishibox. The cost is $19.95 a month. The reviews have been quite good on this box if you want Korean beauty products.

Oh, I’m super excited for these colors! This palette looks beautiful. The September box palette from this brand was very good, so this one should be too. This will be my 3rd box from BC, and I have to say that I’m very impressed! I would like to petition for an eye cream though, lol.

I love eyeshadow palettes, they’re my favorite makeup item. I’d love it if they sent one with bright COLORS, or really deep shades that aren’t brown or black. Like navy, hunter green, burgundy. I’m sure that won’t happen though, I am in the minority when it comes to bold eyeshadow.

Ginni
Same here! I would love to see a bold color or deep color palette.

I would love some bold colours too… Let’s be honest.. Who doesn’t like colours? Subscription boxes should include some bold colours for eyeshadows.

You are so not alone! I would love some more daring colors! I have so many of these browns and plums. Let’s mix it up a bit!

Kimberly
Yes! We should start a petition. Lol Maybe one day someone will make a bold beauty box….absolutely no neutrals EVER. They could call it “the bold and the beautiful” like that cheesy soap opera haha

I had to drop BC and MorpheMe for about 3 months, started back with BC last month after I saw the dang palettes! I LOVE them! SO wish I had gotten the OFRA one. I always stockpile stuff I won’t use for making up birthday gift bags or to put in stockings for Christmas. Or I have taken boxfuls to the woman’s shelter. I have never complained about Boxy only that I was without them for 4 months or so LOL. I was slightly disappointed that I didn’t get the Ofra highlight but heck MUG is coming out with highlighters for 20.00 each and I’d rather choose my highlight from them anyway. Colourpop has them for 8.00 too. I LOVE BC!

I’ve been looking at your reviews of this and am seriously tempted to get this. But I don’t know if I want to get this and drop Birchbox and/or Ipsy, or just get this and keep those too. Hmmmm.

Kelsey Campbell
I dropped my Birchbox, without the points system it just didn’t seem worth it to me. I love my BoxyCharm and Ipsy!
Reply
Jacinda
I agree! I just go my last box as I too cancelled BB because of no points any longer. I seemed to be getting products lately that didn’t apply to me no matter what I did to “tweak” my profile. I had that one for over 4 yrs! I am hoping to start BoxyCharm in Novemeber!
Shelby
I personally think that boxycharm would be better than both of those combined. Not to say that they don’t have great products and such and I’ve never had those two myself but I’m a makeup freak and spend loads of time watching unboxings and every YouTuber finds boxycharm to be their favorite or one of their favorites and the things I see in those boxes could not compare to what I get in my boxycharm! Incomparable in my opinion. Definitely get it. You won’t regret it for a second. Even liking just one or two products makes up for it because of the price for a lot of things in their boxes. You get over a hundred dollars worth of stuff every time. I’m the type of person that would never go out and spend that much money on myself so getting all that for 21 a month? Deal.

Boxycharm is the best box over Birchbox which is aweful and Ipsy. Ipsy is good for skin care and hair products. Birchbox sends items that are way too expensive to purchase the full size and the samples are very small.

This is by far my favorite box. Amazing items and the value is great. I’ve only been slightly disappointed with one box and I’ve been subscribed since April I think.

I had Sephora Birchbox & IPSY but when I got my first boxycharm I cancelled all of the others!!! Loved my first BC and can’t get enough of neutrals I have a colorful anniversary palate from UD and they have their full spectrum which I’m sure im going to buy but still would prefer the neutrals for everyday.

2 colors maybe but that palette is way close to the one in the past box. It’s not like a nude palette and now we are getting a smoky or limited edition. I compared the colors maybe 2 look different but it’s pretty much the same. Anyone wants a pic let me know
Michelle Dorton Hamby
I know I don’t like that I just got the exact same in September box and I don’t want another that’s the same! I can’t believe BC would do the same knowing we just got this in September box!! What’s BC, why again???

Melissa Moore
It’s the same but it is different shades
Kendall
It’s the same brand but not the same palette. Different colors, if you look at the picture (I think the old palette was linked because the new one isn’t on their site yet). It seems like this one will be nice purples and cool shades rather than a brown/bronze palette. I’m pretty excited because I liked the September one a lot but it wasn’t really my color scheme. This one is much more in line with what I will use.
Chelsea
The colors were different in Septembers. They were more neutral browns/copper. This is Violets and Plums.

Did anyone receive another blush/bronzer other than the Temptu item for their October box?

I got the Ofra Highlighter and Cargo Bronzer. No Temptu. I didn’t get a lippy, which is fine. I also got an eyeliner instead of the blow dry cream. Also fine by me.

Sweet tap-dancing Jesus.
I had to let BC go for a minute back in August, so I missed the Sept palette. I was very sad, my cc was very happy.
But, I was not missing out this one with those fun colors. Not today, my friend. Not today.

I just got my box, Temptu….ugh. I gave it a fair shot and tried it on. I look like an Oompa-Loompa, I’m not kidding. The shade of lip was a purple in the tube, I put it on and it it’s brown, it’s so gross looking. And it left a pretty good stain, so yeah for those who get a good color. I had to use a lip scrub to get it off. So between the Oompa Loompa shade no this brown side I looked like……I don’t know what actually. I’m not passing either of them on, they are both in my bathroom garbage. Sad…….

My lip shade was orange. UGH & Temptu, of course. Loved the brushes. 🙂

Same! Mine was like hideous pumpkin puke orange ? But I LOVE the brushes.

Oh they tried to sell that Tempting bronzer like it was the best thing ever on instagram. It made the girl, who was beautiful mind you, look like she had gone outside and rubbed some dirt around her hairline etc. it looked muddy and awful. And then she started using a stipling brush and I was like no no no I’m out. That stuff should be used for airbrushing ONLY. ONLY. DON’T care what anyone else says.
Reply
Cat
Autocorrect hates Temptu as well.
Katy
Im only half excited for this. I really liked the matte shadow formula in the last palette but not the shimmer ones. I do like the colors though. The Costal palette did not work for me for my face but its working out nicely for eyeshadow and these shades will be fun to mix with them. I really hope we are getting skin care. I want a full sized eye cream or primer. Or anything from Clark’s Botanicals. I feel like Im starting to stockpile too much makeup and I will have a hard time justifying during the holiday season if there isn’t one or two things I need in there. Does anyone know if Boxy does Black Friday specials?
Early spoiler months make me happy. Boxy is my favorite and I got so impatient waiting to start finding out what was going to be in October’s box.

I have enough pallettes to last a lifetime, but I’m still looking forward to this one. Ive seen so much backlash on social media over the temptu/ofra deal. It is impossible to curate a box that is going satisfy everyone 100% every month. Whose to say they won’t have an even better highlighter in a future box, or send the ofra one to the ones that didn’t get it this time, when they are able to get more? I do feel like they are trying to make it up to their subscribers by sneak peaking this awesome palette so early, and now they are getting backlash for sending too many pallettes. I am subbed to quite a few boxes, and there are definitely items I receive that don’t always work for me. What makes me feel better, rather than getting upset about it, it is giving them to someone less fortunate that can’t afford to pay full price for makeup, or can’t even afford to pay $21 a month for over $100 worth of products like we can. There are women’s shelters that it can be donated to. Women who have lost all of their belongings in floods, hurricanes, fires, tornadoes, etc… I’m not trying to attack anyone, just trying to help people see a different perspective.

Catherine Cayton
Thank you!!! I totally agree. I’m subbed to a few different boxes/ bags and Boxycharm is by FAR the best. All full size, the value is amazing and the QUALITY of the items is great! The point is to try new things, you’re not going to like EVERYTHING. So you get something you don’t like? Ok, gift it forward for someone else to try, you don’t freak out and threaten to unsubscribe. I hate to say this, but some of the people griping sounded straight bratty. There was actually a woman who addressed Boxycharm directly, and told them it was not fair to her specifically, that they sent her something she wont use (the bronzer obviously). I’m very surprized this month at the way some people have handled this. I’ve only been subbed for three months and I’m totally amazed at the effort Boxycharm obviously puts into getting us there awesome full sized products. Normally full sized equals not that great, that’s why the full size is available…but not with Boxycharm. Personally I love it. Great job Boxycharm 🙂
Sorry…rant over lol :/

That is so sweet of you to say. I dealt with loss from a tornado a few years ago. I went to a church pantry to get just some food, and some church ladies had stockpiled makeup and girly stuff to give out. Having makeup after losing everything really can help you feel human again. Little things like that give you a sense of normalcy. There are plenty of ladies out there who’d love to have the stuff we don’t want. I cringe every time I see someone say they threw something in the trash. It’s there’s to do what they want with I guess, but still…

I’m with you. Give your unwanted items to someone who needs it. The point of these boxes is to sample. Although I really like this particular pallette. I think I will order this even though I have tons of shadow. Mine are mainly loose pigment shadows with a few solids and creams but these colors look like they will work for me as neutrals that for once not all tan and brown or bronze. Give me pinks and purples any day, just give me color.
